3.3 Connecting Power

Plug the pressure washer's power cord into a 120V GFCI-protected electrical outlet. The unit is equipped with a 6 ft power cord with GFCI for safety.

3.4 Initial Hose Setup

The 100 ft pressure hose is pre-installed on the retractable reel. Ensure the spray gun is securely attached to the end of the pressure hose.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Powering On and Off

Turn on the water supply to the pressure washer. Press the ON/OFF switch on the unit to power it on. The Total Stop System (TSS) will automatically shut off the pump when the trigger is not engaged, saving energy and prolonging pump life.

4.2 Using the Retractable Hose

To extend the hose, pull it gently to the desired length. The ratchet locking system will hold the hose in place. To retract, give the hose a gentle tug, and it will automatically rewind into the reel.

4.3 Nozzle Selection

The pressure washer comes with 4 quick-connect nozzles for various cleaning tasks:

• 0° (Red): For concentrated, high-impact cleaning of stubborn stains. Use with caution.
• 15° (Yellow): For intense cleaning of hard surfaces like concrete and brick.
• 25° (Green): For general cleaning of most surfaces, including wood and siding.
• 40° (White): For gentle cleaning of delicate surfaces, vehicles, and wide area rinsing.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Hose Care

The 100 ft replaceable pressure hose is constructed with three-layer composite anti-explosion material. To ensure longevity, avoid sharp bends or kinks during use and storage. The automatic rewind system helps protect the hose from damage.

5.2 Nozzle Cleaning

Periodically check nozzles for blockages. Use the included nozzle cleaning tool to clear any debris. A clogged nozzle can reduce pressure and damage the pump.

5.3 Winterization

If storing the pressure washer in an area where temperatures may drop below freezing, it is crucial to winterize the unit. Run a pump protector or non-toxic antifreeze through the system to prevent damage from freezing water.

6. Troubleshooting

The Total Stop System (TSS) automatically shuts the pump off when the trigger is not engaged. This is a normal safety and energy-saving feature.

The GFCI plug is a safety device. If it trips, press the reset button to restore power. If it repeatedly trips, discontinue use and contact support.
